Superfly is on a distinguished road
Default Almost finished!

This has taken me a month so far! I didnt imagine it would take this long, but with the drying time of silicone, the holidays, and work, it took quite a while. I just put in the aquatic plants and one blue crawdad so far. Im hoping he will like to eat the occasional cricket that falls in the water. It took me quite some time to get the waterfall to work without any leaks...I hope it stays that way

I have air plants and some ferns coming in from Blackjungle.com so that will liven up the background. I need to find some smaller twigs to add towards the top so the frogs will have something to run around on.

Sorry about the blurry pic. Its the best one that turned out and I suppose thats just how it is when you have acrylic.

I would watch the size of your electric blue. My sister and her husband used to raise them and they can get good sized. They are also on the aggressive side, but allitls slow moving. a larger one could see an unwary frog as a meal.

Yea I put some mystery snails in there to keep things clean and he keeps aggravating one of them. I dont know how much longer he'll stay. I just have to keep a close eye on his behavior

Just got my plants in today, got all the air plants situated, so now the waiting begins before I get some frogs.

All I have left to do is put some branches up towards the top of the tank and dial the temp/humidity in.
